I’m trying to remember the last time I actually had a core file. I think core dumps have been disabled by default on Linux since at least 2000.
I don’t use Ruby anymore, but I still use irb
everyday as a command line calculator.
I’m not great with gdb but I think using the x cmd shows them.
Your result is correct, is just not displaying the leading zeros.
It was definitely DDJ… back in the early 90s, right? I once asked Walter Bright (creator of D) if they were related and he told me it was just a naming coincidence.
Known to cause heisenbugs. They’re bugs that disappear when you try to measure them with a debugger or a printf.
Yeah back before github existed, we used sourceforge to host opensource, and you had to use CVS. Then later Subversion.
ah man… that’s a part of the internet I really miss. For those that don’t know, the .plan file was a file you put in your home folder, and anyone on the internet could run finger johnc@idsoftware.com
(or your own user@server obviously) which would output your status and your .plan and .project files. Which is why people have a copy of John Carmack’s .plan file.
Because the execs suck ass, everyone will lose their job eventually an yway.

Nah… wrap entire templates in @if
statements.
The problem is that if you send a message just blindly, you can be tricked into sending spam to millions of addresses. I do one thing that prevents that, but does violate the standard, I verify there’s only 1 ‘@’ in the address… this technically prevents people with '@'s in their name, but they probably find it impossible to do anything with that address anyway.
If you’re going to do a text adventure, don’t deprive yourself of using the most English friendly dsl ever, inform 7.
State machines always make me think of the Disk II controller on the Apple II. It uses a state machine to implement reading and writing sectors to disk.

Another benefit from working from home: I will happily spend my own money on a good chair, keyboard, etc. I spent 20 years working in an office and there’s no way I would’ve ever brought in my own chair during that time… I would’ve had to become the chair police to prevent it from getting “reappropriated”
So it won’t work for 0.0001% of all github projects.
Interesting. A year ago I was looking for something exactly like this for distributing data between multiple servers. Everything required a ton of overhead or was too big to use. I ended up just using json. I did discover that Brotli can compress 3 gigs of json down into just 70 megs nearly instantly.
I would fix that bug but the complete rewrite that management has had me working on for the past two years will make it obsolete anyway.
